Lord and to think that there are men who
are subjects of the queen and want to I've sub

| tell you, quite mad! However, there's an
end OF it all now. You know what Sir Gar
net Woseiey told them in the name of the
queen up at the Naal river, that this
country would remain English till
the sun stood still in the heavens
and the waters of the Vaal ran backward
That's good enough for NE, for, as tell these

now that we have paid thcir debts and de-

After breakfast, us john was far too lame
to go about the farm, the fair Bessie sug-
gested that he should come and helm her to
wash batch of ostrich feathers, and, &C.
cordlnSly, off ne Went. The locus oucrandi
was i'll space of grass in the rear OF a little
clump of 'naatche7 orange trees. Of which
the fruit is like that of the Maltese orange,
only larger. Here were placed an ordinary
washing tub half filed with warm water and
tin bath full of cold. he o,,riah feathers,
many of which were comrl5i coated with
red dirt, were plunged first iHio the tub Of
warm water, where John Mel scrubbed them
with soap, and then transferred to the tin
them on a sheet in the sun to dry. The
morning was very pleasant and John soon
came to the conclusion that there are
many more disagreeable occupations in
the world than the washing of ostrich
feathers with a lovely girl to help you; for
there was no doubt but that she was lovely,
a very type of happy, healthy womanhood,
as she sat there opposite to him on the little
stool, her sleeves rolled up almost to the
shoulder, showing a pair of arms that would
not have diSgraced a statue of Venus, and
laughed and chatted away as she washed the
feathers. Now, John Mel was not suscepti-
ble man; he had gone through the fire years
before and burned bis fingers like .mapy

SONG or rHE SEAWIND.

How it sings, sings, sings, sings,
Blowing sharply from the sea line,
With an edge Of salt that sfings;
How it laughs aloud and passes
As it cuts the close cliff grasses;
How it sings again and whistles,
How it shakes the stout sea thistles-
How it sings!
How it shrieks, shrieks, shrieks,
In the crannies of the headland,
In the gashes of the creeks;
How it shrieks once mole and catches
Up the yellow foam in patches;
How it whirls it out and over
To the cornfcld and the clover
How it shrioks!
How it rOafs, rOars, roaIs,
In the iron under caverns,
In the hollows of the shores
How it roars anew and thunders
AS the strong hull splits and sunders,
And the spent ship, tempest driven,
On the reef lies rent and liven-
Flow ttoaIs
How it walls, walls, walls,
In the tangle Of the wreckage,
In the Tapping Of the sails;
How It's sobs away, subsiding,
Like a tired child from chiding;
And across the ground swell rolling
You can hear the bell-buoy tolling-
How it walls

SPEND WIsELY.-Look most to
your spending. No matter what
comes in, ii more goes out you Will
soon be poor. Tue art is not in
making money, but in keeping it;
little expenses like mice in a
barn, when they are many, make
great waste. Hair by hair heads
get bald. Straw by straw, the
thatch goes of the cottage, aud
drop by drop the rain comes into
the chamber. A barrel is SOON
empty if the tap leaks but drop a
minute. When you mean to save
begin with the month there are
many thieves down tile red lane.
The ale jug is great waste. ln
all other things keep within COM
pass. In clothes choose suitable
stuff, aud not tawdry flDeries. To
be warm is the main thing, never
miud the looks. Never stretch your
legs further than the blanket Will
reach, or you will sOou be cold. A
fool may make money, but it needs
wise man To spend it. Ii you give
all to back and board, there Is moth
ing left for the Savings bauk. Fare
hard aud work hard while you are
young, aud you will have 4 chance
of rest when sou are old

nothing would be said. One or the
other would take the chalk and re-
store the white lin of the frontier.
This was all very well but for
one thing. l. was noticed that at.
ter this white Ene had been rubbed
out few times that there was "a
faint white streak that a wash rag
did not remove. Even after vigor.
GUS rubbing there was still trace
of division. l think this shows
well enough the peril Of the begin.
ming Of quarrel.
There is, l believe, no prejudice
against color. Nobody had any
prejudice against CLEOPATRA. Men
OF color are social equals in all
countries where the color does not
suggest slave. The American
white man can remember when
black was the badge Of slave.
The cOlored man can remember the
same thing. Perhaps by and by,
when there is no white man living
who has seen a slave, and no color
ed man who has seen a master, the
question Of equality will be easier.
The stealing Of men, the slave
trade, has put wide gulf between
those who stole and those who were
stolen. There is a feeling of injury
received and OF injury done. 1t is
natural to hate those who have in
jurcd us. AMI it is natural to hate
more those we have injured.
1t is complained that the negro
does not exhi6it much gratitude for
his freedom. Wen, to men, Why
should he If l were released
from prison, to which | had been
unju>tly committed. should not be
grateful. But thinking more deep
ly on this matter | see Il light.
Suppose a thoughtful ColOred man
looks at the graves of which slave
ry was the occasion. 1t seems to
me that the North and South have
paid pretty dearly for their sins.
Blood and tears. And suppose
black and white together think
this. Cruel aS the slave trade was,
it has been the means of all that
makes he difference between the
colortll citizen of the United States
aud black savage OF Africa. 1t
was in he end Il good thing Joseph
was sold into Egypt. Thought on
the good outcome will take the bit
teruess away. | seem to hear the
old words at mist needs be that
offrnSes come, hut woe to that man
by whom the OifenSe cOmeth."
There seems to be II reason why
dislike ltvelopS into hate; and only
hate is lasting. But there is even
in natural iiian suiiicthlng against
this. Ii is not Il tileasdut thing to
think every mau'S Hand is against
you. 1t is not altogether pleasant
NOT to be on speaking terms with
fellow creature. Men in Quiet mo-
ments tie OF enmity-wiSh ter rec
onciliation. The slightest motion
toward it is often met most gladly.
| have spoken too poorly of the
forgiveness We see 0n earth-Of
man to man. There is one forgive
ness that is like that of God's-fOr-
givencSs of father and mother OF
the offeuseS Of children. Who re
members the offeuse OF a child p? j
,lO not historically remember what
the child did, not the day of the
month nor even the Near-l have
forgotten what he did. That makes
me able to believe that God can
blot out the sins of his children
and remember them no more for
ever.

proceeds to say so; admits that he
himself was perfectly satisfied; but
that he got the idea from some of
those who ndw say that everything

ton of the parrot whose sad acci-
dent should be a warning to all
who indulge in lndiscreet criticism.
A dog was trOtting leisurely down
the street, attending to his own bus
mess, and deeply immersed in some
abstruse dOgmatlsm. AT the same
time parrot was sitting ON box
and screamed out "Sick him Sick
him. The dog jumped around ii
high state of excitement aud pre-
pared for action. Seeing nothing
in sight for him to be sicked at ex
cept the parrot, he leaped upon
that unhappy bird and made the
feathers fly. When the parrot had
escaped tG higher perch aud sur

sorroGfully: "Polly talk too d-n

The ARMY Egged /.

The popularity of the Salvation Army
does not seem to be on the increase. OF
late, their meetings have been partic-
ularly noisy, and scarcely an evening
passes without row or disturbance of
some kind; still 1.-THE army does not ap-
pear to be discouraged. Yesterday
dodgers were thrown around the street,
announcing that two days campaign
would be opened. So when they
marched from their barracks to Cum
nington's corner yesterday afternoon, a
large crowd gathered to witness the
services. ut is said that this INSTRUCTED
the street and sidewalk. interfering
seriously with business, and the police
were telephoned for. While the Saliva
tionists were praying, they were greeted
with a shower of rotten eggs, and most
of them were hit. Some of the spectat-
ors were hit as well, and the crowd i'm
mediatelY scattered.
